Buonasera amici di Hive,
Come tutti sapete, e come avete potuto vedere sulla ricetta delle pizzette alla cagliaritana, mi piace cucinare, e oggi voglio raccontarvi di una ricetta sarda che sicuramente tutti conoscete... Stò parlando della Fregula ai frutti di mare...
Questa ricetta l'ho preparata per il pranzo di Natale, è arrivata un pò per caso, qualche giorno prima di Natale, ero a casa dei genitori di @stea90, e stavamo pensando al primo piatto da preparare... Ed ecco che mi si è accesa la lampadina😎😎😎... Faccio Sa Fregula, mi sono ricordata che l'estate scorsa ne avevo comprato un pacco mentre ero in vacanza in Sardegna...
Faccio mente locale di che tipo di pesce serviva, e sono andata a comprare tutto il necessario...

Ora vi racconto gli ingredienti e come prepararli. Innanzitutto vi dico che ci sono diverse preparazioni per fare una buona Fregula, per prima cosa bisogna pulire il pesce, per questo mi sono fatta aiutare da Fede...

Ingredienti per il brodo:
4/5 gamberi grandi
5/6 chele di granchio
passata di pomodoro q.b
sale q.b.
Procedimento per il brodo:
Molto semplice da fare, come tutti sapete, basta mettere a cucinare i gamberi e le chele in acqua, dopo che inizia a bollire, versare un pò di passata e lasciar bollire altri dieci munuti... Nel brodo, non è obbligatorio mettere gamberi e chele di granchio, ma utilizzare il pesce che preferite...

Ingredienti sugo:
200 gr di moscardini
200 gr di seppioline
300 gr di vongole veraci
300 gr di cozze
7/8 gamberi grandi
sale q.b.

Procedimento per il sugo:
Il primo ingrediente da cucinare sono i moscardini. Mettere a scaldare in una padella dell'olio piccante (se vuoi un sugo piccante, altrimenti va bene anche solo olio), io in questo caso ho usato un olio piccante preparato da @stea90 con jalapeno l'estate scorsa.

![](https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://images.ecency.com/DQmPY3LpHEXAe4d9R6Ha7WmDTVskDZTR99bzNemqFGmbTLu/g1.png)
Lascio cucinare i moscardini per circa 20 minuti, (in questo momento ho fatto un cambio pentola perchè mi sono resa conto che quella che stavo utilizzando era troppo piccola🤭🤭🤭), dopo aggiungo seppioline, vongole, cozze e gamberi, dopo 5 minuti cospargo tutti gli ingredienti con del brandy, dopo che è evaporato, aggiungo la passata di pomodoro e lascio cucinare per altri 10 minuti...

Il sugo per ora è pronto... Ora cambiamo location, si va dai suoceri a finire di cucinare... Metto la Fregula nel sugo precedentemente cucinato, e piano piano aggiungo il brodo, mescolo, come se stessi cucinando un risotto, e continuo fino a cottura ultimata, circa 15/20 minuti.

Il piatto era perfetto, tutti mi hanno fatto i complimenti, c'era però una grossa pecca, era poca 😥😪😓, ho promesso che la cucinerò nuovamente molto presto...
Spero che la mia ricetta vi abbia incuriosito, Vi faccio tantissimi auguri di buon anno, e al prossimo post 😉😉😉

Good evening Hive friends,
As you all know, and as you could see on the recipe for the Cagliaritan pizzas, I like to cook, and today I want to tell you about a Sardinian recipe that you all surely know... I'm talking about the Fregula with seafood...
I made this recipe for Christmas lunch, it arrived a bit by chance, a few days before Christmas, I was at @stea90's parents' house, and we were thinking about the first dish to prepare... And here I am the light bulb is on😎😎😎... I do Sa Fregula, I remembered that last summer I bought a pack while I was on holidays in Sardinia...
I remember what kind of fish was needed, and I went to buy everything I needed...

Now I'll tell you the ingredients and how to prepare them. First of all I tell you that there are several preparations to make a good Fregula, first of all you need to clean the fish, for this I asked Fede to help me...

Ingredients for the broth:
4/5 large prawns
5/6 crab claws
tomato purée to taste
Salt to taste.
Procedure for the broth:
Very simple to do, as you all know, just put the prawns and claws to cook in water, after it starts to boil, pour a little tomato purée to taste boil another ten minutes... In the broth, it is not mandatory to put prawns and crab claws, but use the fish you prefer...

Gravy ingredients:
200 g of baby octopus
200 g of cuttlefish
300 g of clams
300 g of mussels
7/8 large shrimp
Salt to taste

Procedure for the gravy:
The first ingredient to cook is baby octopus. Heat some spicy oil in a pan (if you want a spicy sauce, otherwise just oil is fine), in this case I used a spicy oil prepared by @stea90 with jalapeno last summer.

I let the octopus cook for about 20 minutes, (at this moment I changed the pot because I realized that the one I was using was too small🤭🤭🤭), then I add cuttlefish, clams, mussels and prawns, after 5 minutes I sprinkle all the ingredients with some brandy, after it has evaporated, add the tomato puree and let it cook for another 10 minutes...

The sauce is ready for now... Now let's change location, we go to the in-laws to finish cooking... I put the Fregula in the previously cooked sauce, and slowly add the broth, mix, as if I were cooking a risotto, and continue until cooked through, about 15/20 minutes.

The dish was perfect, everyone complimented me, but there was one big flaw, it was little 😥😪😓, I promised I'll cook it again very soon...
I hope my recipe has intrigued you, I wish you a happy new year, and see you in the next post 😉😉😉
